Minerals. Not unheard of but I've never actually seen it before; a guy I used to work with told me he saw a buck eat a baby bunny once & had seen them eat eggs.
Thanks for linking that, I bet most people didn't know a deer could become omnivorous!

Re: Carnivorous deer?!?!?
Vix, great link. You know, I did a study way-back-when in a collegiate Wildlife Biology course on deer populations. I remember researching their entire browse but not once was there ever any mention of them being omnivorous...but your video demonstrated they indeed are Just goes to show one never stops learning.

I'm no animal doctor & I've never played one on tv but I bet due to the organisms in their stomachs & it's design for rumination would prohibit that sort of omnivore behavior from happening very often; digestion would seem to be a HUGE problem. The mineral starvation from antler growth theory seems to be the best explanation for what would cause this aberrant eating habit & I bet it was regurgitated soon after it went down.
In other words....I doubt we'll be seeing any zombie deer movies on the horizon.

Re: Carnivorous deer?!?!?
Years ago there was a video showing a deer eating baby killdeer in their nest. The weirdest I have seen is a doe eating hickory nuts. I wouldn't have believed that if I didn't see it.

There are documented cases where deer have been seen eating fish washed up on the beach of either North or South Manitou ( I don't remember which) islands in lake Michigan.

Re: Carnivorous deer?!?!?
I seen a doe eat the guts from a buck I shot that morning but ive never seen them eat anything live like this
Re: Carnivorous deer?!?!?
I guess does eat the afterbirth and other membranes after birthing their fawns so it might not be so weird after all?
